need help with character movement script

[izicbro]

the issue is that my void update and void fixed update are not working for some reason. im new but cant figure out how to fix it.

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;

public class PlayerMovement : MonoBehaviour
{
    public CharacterController2D controller;
    public float runSpeed = 40f;
   
    float horizontalMove = 0f;
    bool jump = false;


        void Update ()
    {
        horizontalMove = Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal") * runSpeed;

        if (Input.GetButtonDown("jump"))
        {
            jump = true;
        }
    }
        void FixedUpdate ()
   
    {

        controller.Move(horizontalMove * Time.fixedDeltaTime, false, false);
        jump = false;
    }
}

2 things:

Did you attached the script to the player GameObject?

Put in a Debug.Log in both the Update and FixedUpdate to verify they are running (you can see in the Console window the messages they output).

these are the error messages sorry i forgot and yes its set to the player GameObject that’s how I created it

OMG i figured it out. somehow i duplicated the script into a random file in my assets and i just found it and deleted it. my guess is it didn’t work because they had the same name and same property’s.
